Is 10th August a school holiday for your kid's school?

[limlim]

Any P5, P6 parents here?


Are you happy that there are many school holidays like 10th Aug?

Personally I would prefer the classes to be on as usual (since it is not PH and no bonding)… rather than last minute rush due to school holidays…

How about you? if you like it, do share also… Is P5 & P6 so stressful that extra day off is good? Or will it result in more stress instead?

I have expected it.. carry on..

I stand by my point.. teachers are not ill-treated by MOE.

Of course they are not!!!

They are ill-treated by their HODs and Ps .... duh

My dd is P6 this year. I don't mind 10th August is a school holiday cos 16-17 August is PSLE Oral. :nailbite: We can have more time preparing at home.

Mine in P5. Yes, we welcome the day off whether or not they are participating. There are more school days aniwaes… so no biggie (for us). …and mind you, school hours these days are sometimes longer than normal 8hrs like parents going office hours. My girls awake at 5 plus and certain days reach home ard 6.

The common complains are low salary and long working hours. Which, has nothing to do with parents.

Give up after nth tries.. no more energy to fight since there are many more young and capable teachers-to-be around..

\"We had a very good cohort this this year.. and would not be able to offer you.................................\"

see until sick.

Not keen anymore..

Did i read correctly, you made failed ninth attempts? :yikes:

Don't know about you, but if any company dares to reject me 9 times in a row, I surely would have only bad things to say about them.
